You learn something new everyday

I've never been to NY, but then again I really don't have the urge to go. Maybe one day when I do go, they will have the Charger patrol units.

My cousin is in the 114th in Queens over by Roosevelt ave, I have to give him a call and see if he can get me a ride along when they show up. NYPD Highway Patrol will probably get them.....

Yes we all know NYC is made up of 5 boroughs with Highways in each.

I said that the Charger might be good for highway patrol.

The bulk of those 5 boroughs is made up of local streets and a Hybrid would be just fine.

NYC cops drive many miles don't think recoup is a big issue.

NYC already use Hybrid for DOT and other departments.

I saw an undercover cop in a new Charger about two weeks ago.

I've taken my X to NYC many many times without a problem, the ironic thing is that it was vandalized 1.5 miles from home in NJ... go figure.
